Book of the Week: Pick a Colour by Souvankham Thammavongsa 💅

At a busy nail salon, Ning spends her days listening, observing, and blending into the background as “Susan”, just another manicurist to her customers.

But beneath the surface is a sharp and thoughtful woman reflecting on identity, ambition, belonging, and the opportunities life has left behind.

Set over the course of a single day, Pick a Colour is a witty, insightful, and deeply moving novel that explores the immigrant experience, the stories hidden behind everyday lives, and the ways we are seen, or overlooked, by the world around us.

A powerful reminder that every person has a story far richer than first impressions suggest.

Available in store now or for delivery straight to your door.🚪

Books build empathy. Poetry reminds us why.

No Man Is an Island is a reminder that stories connect us, communities sustain us, and we’re never meant to do life alone.

Book of the Week 🇵🇸

What if the world only listens when suffering is presented in the “right” way?

What if empathy comes with conditions? And what if the stories we hear are shaped as much by power as by truth?

This week, we’re reading Perfect Victims: And the Politics of Appeal by Mohammed El-Kurd, a thought-provoking collection of essays that examines how Palestinians are often expected to prove their humanity or fit the image of the “perfect victim” in order to be heard.

Whether you agree with its arguments or not, it’s a book that challenges readers to think critically about narrative, media, and whose voices are given legitimacy.
